Georgia and LSU are the rarest of things in college football: longtime conference mates who barely know one another.
It’s no wonder why. While Georgia was frantically worried about midterms, LSU was busy working on the next day’s hangover. Georgia is one of the most easterly schools in the SEC, while LSU used to sit on the western edge before Texas A&M showed up.
We share a lot of things in common: a long, frustrating history of near misses, classic uniforms, a historic rivalry with an instate foe which has become increasingly noncompetitive, and a deep seated hatred of Auburn.
